Scattered throughout Eleanor’s work are subtle conversations that focus on emotion, connection, and the loneliness of being human. In August of 2014 Eleanor was in a bicycle accident which resulted in a broken neck as well as a traumatic brain injury. Her experience through facing death not only changed her life but continually effects her art, which among other things encompasses loss, and the idea of departing from love.

Erin Frost’s self-portraiture examines themes of desire and identity. Working intuitively, she creates intimate space to inhabit. Here she enacts performative compulsions and investigates presence and pleasure. Through these explorations, using her body as subject and transformative site, she shifts the perspective and reclaims the gaze.
